Dear libcurl community, I hope this message finds you in good health. I am reaching out to seek your assistance regarding an issue that I have been experiencing with one of my Python scripts that involves the use of libcurl.
The script, named **proxy-speed.py**, is employed to measure and display the speed of different proxies. It runs through a list of proxies, giving the current and average speed for each, one at a time. However, the issue arises when I try to terminate the script prematurely using Ctrl+C. The KeyboardInterrupt appears to only pause the current task, and the script instantaneously proceeds with the next proxy on the list, clearly illustrating that it doesn’t exit entirely. Here’s an example illustrating the issue: ``` File "/home/werner/Desktop/proxy-speed/proxy-speed.py", line 54, in progress def progress(download_t, download_d, upload_t, upload_d): KeyboardInterrupt Average Speed: 3944.97 kB/s Proxy: SG_ssr_futeapbquf5m.nodelist.club_1356_8ce27b1301fcbcb77cc5abb28cb127a6 ^CTraceback (most recent call last): File "/home/werner/Desktop/proxy-speed/proxy-speed.py", line 54, in progress def progress(download_t, download_d, upload_t, upload_d): KeyboardInterrupt Average Speed: 72.81 kB/s ``` This repeat pattern continues for every Ctrl+C interruption made. Hence, my goal is to modify the script so that a single Ctrl+C command would result in a comprehensive termination of the script. Any guidance or suggestions that you could offer regarding this issue would be greatly appreciated. If there is any further information needed to better understand the issue, please let me know. The content of **proxy-speed.py** is as follows: ``` import subprocess import time import pycurl from io import BytesIO def fetch_proxies(): command = 'echo "show stat" | sudo socat stdio /var/run/haproxy.sock 2>/dev/null | awk -F, \'$1=="socks5" && !($2~/^(FRONTEND|BACKEND)$/) {print $2,$74}\'' process = subprocess.Popen(command, stdout=subprocess.PIPE, shell=True) output, error = process.communicate() result_dict = {} # Initialize default empty dictionary if error is not None: return result_dict # Return the empty dictionary in case of error lines = output.decode('utf-8').split('\n') for line in lines: if line != "": key_value = line.split(' ') result_dict[key_value[0]] = key_value[1] return result_dict def test_proxy(proxy, url): global last_calc_time, download_start_time buffer = BytesIO() c = pycurl.Curl() c.setopt(pycurl.URL, url) c.setopt(pycurl.WRITEDATA, buffer) c.setopt(pycurl.PROXY, proxy) c.setopt(pycurl.PROXYTYPE, pycurl.PROXYTYPE_SOCKS5_HOSTNAME) c.setopt(pycurl.NOPROGRESS, False) c.setopt(pycurl.XFERINFOFUNCTION, progress) c.setopt(pycurl.TIMEOUT, 5) download_start_time = time.time() last_calc_time = download_start_time try: c.perform() except pycurl.error as e: pass except KeyboardInterrupt: print("Script interrupted by user. Exiting.") sys.exit(0) # immediately exit the script average_speed = c.getinfo(pycurl.SPEED_DOWNLOAD) / 1024 return average_speed def progress(download_t, download_d, upload_t, upload_d): global last_calc_time, download_start_time current_time = time.time() if current_time - last_calc_time >= 2: elapsed_time = current_time - download_start_time current_speed = download_d / elapsed_time / 1024 print(f"Current Speed: {current_speed:.2f} kB/s") last_calc_time = current_time proxy_data = fetch_proxies() url = "http://ipv4.download.thinkbroadband.com/1GB.zip" for key, value in proxy_data.items(): print(f"Proxy: {key}") try: average_speed = test_proxy(value, url) print(f"Average Speed: {average_speed:.2f} kB/s") except KeyboardInterrupt: print("Script interrupted by user. Exiting.") break # exit the for loop ``` Thank you very much for your help in advance.
